Ground Motion Analyzer

Process acceleration records, calculate engineering intensity measures and a linear 5%-damped response spectrum, then compare the record directly against a selected seismic-code target.

Peak ground acceleration—g
Peak ground velocity—cm/s
Peak ground displacement—cm
Arias intensity—m/s
CAV—m/s
Significant duration D5–95—s

Processed ground motion

Acceleration, integrated velocity and displacement after the selected baseline treatment.

Response spectrum vs code target

Pseudo-spectral acceleration against oscillator period. The code target uses the selected standard parameters.

Engineering note — The response spectrum uses linear SDOF oscillators and Newmark's average-acceleration method. Very short periods relative to the input time step are internally substepped, but record quality, component selection, baseline correction and code-specific scaling rules remain the user's responsibility. This tool is for preliminary engineering and education, not final design or record-selection compliance.
